Description

~ Der Schwan ~





Die Maid indes irrte
nächtens umher,
ihr Schmerz ungeborchen -
kein Trost nimmermehr.

Ihr Herz pochte - raste! -
wie Donner in ihr,
die Welt war im Schlummer,
allein war sie hier.

Alleine im Kummer,
der See lag vor ihr,
das Jammern der Schwäne,
es lockte sie hierher....
__________

The maid meanwhile wandered
aimless through the night
her suffering incessant-
no solace, nevermore.

Her heart beat- raced!-
like thunder within her.
The world was in slumber;
she alone was here.

Alone in her cares,
the lake lay before her:
the swans' lament
had lured her hither...

(Empyrium - D ie Schwäne im Schilf)

The maiden's candle fades in the pale darkness. An embers' glow failing, but the hearths heart waiting in the grey...

Healed and destroyed... The paradoxical nature of life. One always follows the other...
